Fat Grams

Does anyone know how much fat grams we should be able to eat, also, carbohydrates and calories. My doctor never told me and I forgot to ask at my doctor's appointment.

This is something you should make sure and check with your nutritionist/doctor. Everyone varies a little for fat grams whearas sugar should be only 2 grams or less of added sugar per serving for all of us (other than natural sugars that is). I am allowed up to 12 grams of fat per serving but I am suppose to stay between 28-46 per day. My own personal limit is no more than 7-9 grams of fat per serving so I can make sure to stay within my limits. Most of the time I chose foods that are way less than the 7 grams. Hope this helps some...make sure and check with your nutritionist/doctor...weight and height makes a difference. Mandie

My doc never really told me about the fat grams. Just to eat low fat or no fat foods. He wants me to stay under 800 calories per day not. And told me that my foods should have no more than 10 calories per gram of protein. Hope this helps...

I was told by my MD to get 64+ oz fluids a day, less than 60 Carbs per day total, less than 30 Fat Per Day total and more than 75 Protein per day total {females more than 60 Protein total per day}. Then at 6 mo Protein goes up to 100 Grams for males and 75 for females.

MY doc agreed aI can do the 50/50 since I have such a hard time getting everything in. Never mentioned fat grams.. I just try to to stay away. I have to eat protein and drink liquids to the best I can... I am never hungry - could go for days I feel just drinking... BE careful remember what we are putting in we are not absorbing fully so every bite should count as a nutrient we need. I know it is difficult I have a hard time.. Good luck Pattiann
